Interesting idea and very well done. Just one question; why does it require all these permissions to get started:
1 - Know who you are on Google
2 - View your email address
3 - View and manage your spreadsheets in Google Drive
4 - View and manage data associated with the application
5 - Allow this application to run when you are not present
6 - Connect to an external service
I am specifically concerned about the first and third items.
- parsabg 12y ago#3: actually that's a good point and a cause for concern, but there's not much we can do about it as far as I know since we write the results directly in your spreadsheets; and the add-on, once installed, is present in all your spreadsheets. #1: we need your email address in order to manage your credits and verify your credit purchases through Google Wallet. most other add-ons require the same permissions, so I think the permission titles could use a bit of clarification. all that said, this is something to have in mind and improve for sure.
